Wheel Bolts Problems of Lexus LS

On 9/6/2007 I had a flat tire. I took it to the tire place, I bought a new tire that they installed. As I drove away I heard a clicking sound and I went back to the store. Two studs were backed up a little and loosened the nuts. On 11/23/2007 I had to replace two tires. I tightened the studs. I drove several hundred miles and then on 11/29/2007 I was on the freeway and suddenly the car was shaking and hard to control. I reduced speed and pulled onto the shoulder. I called for a tow truck and towed the car to the Lexus dealer. All the nuts were broken on the drivers side rear tire. When the tow truck delivered the car, there were three nuts on the ground from my car. The Lexus dealer replaced nuts, springs, hub and bearing assembly, disc pad pin, disc cylinder assy. Disc brake pad kit, flage bolt, park lever sub-assy. I have all parts that were replaced.

The contact owns a 2002 Lexus Ls430. The contact stated that the tire made a squeaking noise after it was replaced. The noise was caused by loose bolts. The noise recurred two months ago and could possibly result from a manufacturer defect with the tire bolts and the wheel assembly. The vehicle would shake very violently while driving various speeds. The contact pulled over and noticed all of the bolts and nuts on the ground. He has paid $3,000 in repair costs. The failure mileage was 72,000 and current mileage was 77,000.
